how can so many ppl be so wrong... the show is a great combo of a horrible actress, a capt who throws away the prime directive more than all the previous captains put together, a starship that looks like a toilet seat cover & nacelles that serve no purpose to rise before going to warp

Every time I hear her talk, I want to scream " I AM A ROBOT" or "I AM THE REAL BORG QUEEN, CAN'T YOU TELL BY THE WAY I SPEAK"

I've read SO much hate on Janeway and I really can't figure out why-Yes, I know she made a few bad decisions but I cannot fathom why anyone would call her a terrible starship captain. She doesn't command the same respect someone like Picard does, but she's still an excellent Captain in my opinion.

All of the TREK captains have either made bad decisions or behaved in a way that made me question their ability to command. All of them. And yet, all of them have also proven to be very good at their job. So, I never understood this extreme criticism of Janeway, unless it has something to do with her gender.

To be fair, I think Archer is equally unqualified, and might be worse than Janeway in command ability.

But, of all the things I didn't care for in Voyager, Janeway was not one of them. Aside from some lame writing moments, Mulgrew's performance was just fine.

Every major character/actor has his or her own hate club. Just the way of things.

This is how I feel about these "why the hate" questions too. I think a lot of "captain hate" or character hate of any kind is over-represented on the internet relative to reality. I think there are more fans of any given captain more than there are haters. I personally like all the captains. I have my favorites (KIRK 4 LYFE) but I like them all.
